@richard_suk @Veterans4Wild @gjusto Thank you for sharing the message and the support Richard!

[Richard S @richard_suk]

Wes @WesThomsonVFW and his unique organisation @Veterans4Wild do great work to help protect these wonderful animals and deserve your support particularly on #WorldRhinoDay. This chap, George @gjusto and I had the privilege of experiencing 😀 in the Kruger, depend on that work.

[Wes Thomson @WesThomsonVFW]

Today is world rhino day! One rhino is poached every 8 hours for its horn! This species is one of the most at risk species in the world! Help spread awareness of this plight and support an NGO working to prevent their extinction!
